@shawnmiller: If you have no amp then why are you looking at speakers for? You need to know how much wattage the amp is putting out. If your amp is higher wattage then your speakers they will first pop then fry like an egg. If your amp is under powered than your speakers will never put out the sound you want plus you can blow your amp since you will be pushing the amp.
What are you looking for other than am amp? Do you want an all in one AM FM receiver or like a Bose System with a full home audio and Blu ray DVD/CD player built in. Also what are you looking to pay for the entire system? Buying separates are the best if you know what you are looking at and have an idea of what your system will be. It is cheaper to start but in the long run you will spend more with separates.

For someone who may not know much about Audio but wants great sound I highly recommend some of the Bose Systems. Bose did the thinking for you and put together some nice systems. I do not recomend there high priced system but for under a grand the Bose 321 systems with sub woofers are more than you may need.

It depends a lot on your system. I would go with a major manufacturer like Polk, Yamaha, Bose, or Klipsch. Most people don't realize how well in-wall speakers can sound. It is actually the optimum speaker configuration because the entire wail or ceiling surface acts as the speaker baffle. Given the right set up, the sound quality can be pretty amazing.

@uberchurl: It can sound good but it has it's faults. Bass wise adding an external Sub woofer or 2 brings it to life. If the rooms are close you can use 1 Sub in the center if they are far apart Put a Sub near the end rooms. And no you do not put a Sub in the ceiling as I am sure @baqui63 was Joking.
I still prefer mounting on the wall or the use of Speaker stands or do what I did which is build the speaker in the open wall. I have 2 JBL monitors and 2 Design Acoustics along with 2 Subs in one room. Powered by a 1,500 watt peak 750 RMS Carver amp. I have broken my wife's Crystal a floor up a few times
In the ceiling you may get vibration from the dirt bouncing around. As easy as it is I would not do wireless. Stick to wired only. Less problems in the long run

In Ceiling speakers can sound amazing - the questions you need to consider...
a) do I want stereo sound or surround sound
b) how big is my room and what angles do I need to consider
c) speaker wire - use CL3 UL rated speaker wire
d) make sure the amp you purchase not only has the connectivity features, but enough power - consider the power rating at 8 ohms per channel (as many amp specifications are misleading, most home audio speakers are 8 ohms)
e) for your consideration...least expensive with great reviews in ceiling speakers https://www.onlyfactorydirect.com/p-122-kevlar-65-in-ceiling-speakers-theater-solutions-ts65c.aspx

It's true, Local.Woot is no longer, but please don't despair.

Never-ending savings are still to be found on Deals.Woot each and every day, so come on in. Don't think of it as a time for tears. Think of it as a way to bring us all closer together under one roof.

Sorry

This is only for people who have bought woots

We restrict voting to users who have purchased something from one of the other Woot stores. It's not just because we want your money (which we do) - it's the best way to be sure all the votes are coming from real people and not spam-bots or phony accounts. The best way we can think of, anyway. For now.

You can always get voting rights by buying something from one of Woot's other sites:

Purchases through Deals.Woot don't count, because in that case you're not buying anything from us. And we don't have your account information for those purchases.

If you think you've bought something from Woot before and still can't vote, make sure you're logged in with the same account you used to buy from us.

Geez, why so negative?

You have to vote up more before you can vote down.

Don't get us wrong. Negativity has its place. And downvotes are just as essential as upvotes when it comes to making Deals.Woot a useful place to find deals.

But when your votes lean so heavily toward the dark side, we have to wonder. Go vote up a few things. Accentuate the positive for a little while. It'll do you some good, and it'll do the site some good, too. Then you can get back to dealing out the smackdowns, OK?

Too late, we all heard you!

Hmm... you're wanting to take your vote back?

Well, that's a bit tricky. See, we do a lot of stuff with your vote, using it to work out the popularity of what you voted for, compare that to all the other things voted on, tally up our leaderboard, work out your reputation. Someday we'll do a little cartoon showing just how hard your vote is working.

Anyway, taking votes back messes all that up, so we give you five minutes, in case you just mis-clicked. After that we've got to say no take-backs. Luckily, votes are free, so feel free to throw them around left and right wherever you see fit.
